Loveology by John Mark Comer explores the theology of love, beginning with the biblical creation of Adam and Eve and examining male/female relationships through a scriptural lens. It combines personal storytelling with biblical teaching to address what God intended for relationships in the Garden of Eden and the challenges faced in today's world. The book covers topics such as marriage, sexuality, romance, singleness, and gender identity, concluding with an honest Q&A session addressing common questions about sexuality and relationships.

Book Hero thinking about your next read

In Loveology John Mark Comer, popular pastor and speaker, breaks down what relationships are all about. Sex, love, marriage, romance, dating and singleness---what went wrong after the Garden of Eden beginning? God thought the whole thing up; what does he have to say to us now? Learn a new theology of love that could change everything for you.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

In the beginning, God created Adam. Then he made Eve. And ever since, we've been picking up the pieces. Loveology is just that—a theology of love.

With an autobiographical thread that turns a book into a story, pastor and speaker John Mark Comer shares about what is right in male/female relationships—what God intended in the Garden. And about what is wrong—the fallout in a post-Eden world.

Loveology starts with marriage and works backward. Comer deals with sexuality, romance, singleness, and what it means to be male and female; ending with a raw, uncut, anything-goes Q and A dealing with the most asked questions about sexuality and relationships.

This is a book for singles, engaged couples, and the newly married—both inside and outside the church—who want to learn what the Scriptures have to say about sexuality and relationships. For those who are tired of Hollywood's propaganda, and the church's silence. And for people who want to ask the why questions and get intelligent, nuanced, grace-and-truth answers, rooted in the Scriptures.
